| Korak and the Champ 27 by FranjoGutierrez |
Scott Hardy is an original character whom I share with the artist FranjoGutierrez at DeviantART. Scott is an actor who played the role of Korak, son of Tarzan, in a Lara Croft movie.
Korak is the Honorable Jack Clayton, son of English Lord John Clayton, Viscount Greystoke, also known as Tarzan, lord of the jungle. He is the hero of a 1915/6 magazine serial and 1917 novel by American writer Edgar Rice Burroughs and a 1920 silent movie serial, as well as a character in several other Tarzan stories from 1914 to 1924. He experienced a revival in 1964 as the star of his own comic book series and as a major character in various Tarzan comic books, pages, and strips from 1966 to 1978.
In the previous movie, the son of Tarzan served as Lara Croft's handsome sidekick. Korak is now ready to embark on his own adventures.
In this series, the son of Tarzan is introduced to the champ and his girlfriend on a safari to take pictures in Africa. In previous blogs, Korak rejects the amorous advances of the champion's girlfriend, but the champ reacts to being told that Korak was the aggressor. After being beaten in a surprise attack, Korak challenges the champ to a rematch but is beaten again.
In this blog, the son of Tarzan quietly observes the champ, who is unaware of the potential danger into which he is walking. Korak remedies that.

The multi-picture series "Korak and the Champ" was commissioned from FranjoGutierrez through DeviantART in 2021 and 2022. One picture is available here.
This picture is fan art and intended to raise interest in and appreciation of the Edgar Rice Burroughs character Korak. This is an original scene and did not appear in any comic book, page, or strip.
